ARE YOU OK? is the first ever zine project by wordsmiths in the Story Reno Studio project. This zine is a collaboration of writing from participants of this rad creative writing intensive exploring themes of isolation, mental health, addiction, queer identity, self-destruction and self discovery…and the overall feeling of not being ok. Come through for incredible readings, chill vibes, and our open mic.

The Story Reno Studio is a 10-week intensive literary development series for new generation writers living and working on the margins. The series is open to writers working in any literary discipline who want to evolve a rough draft (or even an idea) into a polished manuscript. Writers receive comprehensive mentorship in developing story, character, voice, plot, and style, and will have the opportunity to have their work constructively critiqued, and to critique the work of other writers in a supportive environment. It is run by the Cue’s Literary Arts Facilitator Whitney French.
